Anyone any experience of this?

PPC Ads on Your Website by Kontera In Text

Just saw it used on a forum where they use it on the templates for non-logged in viewers, and the registered members don't see it

I think I had an account with them or one of the other providers of a similar solution.

Tried it on a popular enough blog, but never made above $5. I think they like more American based traffic anyway...

Normally Kontera requires a site have a minimum 500,000 page views per month before being accepted into the program

but you can get around it using John Chow's name [linky]

Yeah I tried them, still have them on a site as I can still see clicks coming in but no idea which. Only made about €30 in about a year I think

I have it on 4 pages and seeing a great return, on a U.S based site. I am planning to roll this out on more sites soon enough to see how well it will perform on other niche sites.

So it works well for US traffic?

From what I am seeing yeah. I found a comment left on a blog by someone within Kontera.

sites with traffic from outside the U.S earn lower cpc than sites with traffic from the U.S. This has to do with the fact that most of the merchants and companies who work with us reside in the U.S.

Whats interesting are the mixed opinions on how well they actually perform. I think if you have product based keywords that U.S. sites can advertise with then it will work well. Kinda like the way Chitika is with tech products.

Chitika is hopeless if you haven't got US traffic

That I do agree. I do hope in the future they will push it further across the pond for places like Ireland & UK as its is a good program once you have the right traffic.
